A great conversation with an old friend and climbing buddy Vince Hempsall about transitioning to life as Dads. How did we get here and will we ever climb 5.13 again? And what does that even mean?

Vince is a content provider, magazine editor, marketer, book author, adventurer, videographer, newspaper reporter, publisher, rock climber, social media communicator, mountain biker and writer. But most of all he is DAD and husband to an amazing wife.

We discuss life with two young kids, the downside of not being sponsored climbers, the importance of the outdoors in raising healthy kids, compromised climbing, sleep coaching, skateboarding in your 40s and training our kids to take care of us when we break a hip.

In this opening episode I share my story of being a Long Distance parent and adjusting to life with a child overseas.

It is an insightful conversation with practicing psychologist Todd Kettner Ph.D, as we reflect on the need for Dads to seek help and support each other, embracing our emotions and tackling the challenges of everyday life as a parent.

As Dads, we aren't always very good at taking the time to go for a walk down by the river, to talk about our feelings. This podcast adventure is my journey in reaching out to other Dads to share their stories of parenting, in the hope we can inspire, motivate and support each other.

I have a unique and messy modern dadding situation. I am raising two young boys that live in different countries - Canada and the UK. However, as a resilient Dad I have managed to maintain a strong attachment with both my sons and I want to share the positives of my experience through conversations with other Dads.
